First Time Trying stuff At Coachella

Has anyone ever had their first experience with tripping at Coachella? If so, how was the trip and what were the circumstances? I am considering trying something during the next Coachella, but I'm still hesitant about experiencing an intense alteration of the mind

Hahaha! Don't be the naked wizard!

Take things slow if you really want to do anything. I would test it out a week or two in advance and see how your body and mind react to whatever you're thinking of trying. Err on the side of caution, you will be in public with tens of thousands of people and hundreds of police officers and security guards. I don't know you, but some people do freak out because of the large masses of people.

Hell or highwater, fire and brimstone, not even cancer is powerful enough to keep me from Coachella!

It all depends, what do you plan on trying and what have you done before? There are drugs that I tried for the first time at coachella with no problem but then again im a fucking champion with this shit

completely agree. acid/shrooms etc in a festival environment for the first time is a terrible idea. it could be incredible or the worst time of your life. a er.. friend did acid at outsideland for the first time and wanted to kill herself/turn herself in/ lay in the forest for the rest of the weekend and missed a bunch of great acts.

if you really feel the need to try something i say try e in m o d e r a t i o n with a sitter that has experienced it aswell

Re: First Time Tripping/Trying Hallucinogens At Coachella

It's one thing to try tripping for the first time in a festival environment at Coachella but quite another to trip for the first time ever at Coachella. If you're already hesitant you should probably try it out in a more comfortable and stable atmosphere first.

Regular toker. I rolled for the first time on Coachella Sunday. Greatest day of my life. I understand that hallucinogens are a completely different monster though. I've entertained the idea of shrooming, but as mentioned hesitancy always lingers

Re: First Time Tripping/Trying Hallucinogens At Coachella

if you are anxious about it, the anxiety will manifest itself during your trip. in that case don't do it. you'll end up in your tent, in the fetal position, listening to the middle of in rainbows on your ipod

This is very true, if you're interested in the fungi you should do it at some point before coachella. Its the come on for me that can be quite extreme. But if you wanna do acid, I agree with the lurker and say Fuck It, just eat some with a friend and enjoy the ride.

I dont agree that you need to have a "baby sitter", some of the greatest, happiest and most memorable coachella moments come from you being with a good friend and just being on the same wave length without having to say a word. Theres always gunna be anxiety when doing hard drugs but some simple breathing techniques help and channel that anxiety into excitement for whatever band youre about to see.

damn I miss coachella

I had done shrooms a bunch of times before but did acid for the first time Friday night.....got some intense acid, was fun but had to go back to camp, then made me miss some acts..........i'd either take it in moderation your first time at coachella, try it out before the festival, or do it during the day when there are less people in the actual festival.
